Provide Support and 3dcart integration

Integration is quite simple and straightforward. The best option for the chat button is appearing in a fixed vertical position like on Provide Support website. To proceed with integration, please follow the below instruction:

1.In your Provide Support account Control Panel, please follow My Account / Account Settings / Images page and select a set of vertical images for your chat buttons. You can take a look at the available Live Chat buttons in our gallery.

2.Follow to My Account / Chat Button Codes page and choose there 'Fully Featured Chat Button Code with Uploadable Online / Offline Images' then check 'Generate a floating chat button code' and specify vertical and horizontal position for your chat button. On the example the chat button is set to appear approximately in the middle of the screen tied to the right side of it.

4.In the Template Editor you'd need to insert the code for chat button which you generated on Step 2 to your home.html and frame.html. When you add the chat button code to home.html your chat button will be displayed only on your home page. Thus if you would like to show chat button on other pages, please add the code to frame.html too. It does not matter where you insert the code in home.html file. However, for frame.html we recommend adding it before closing </body> tag.
